A Yonkers felon has been indicted on a murder charge in the fatal March shooting of a Montrose man.

Heriberto Morales is accused of killing Timothy Conkling, whose body was found near 342 Ashburton Ave. in Yonkers around 10:50 a.m. on March 1. The 36-year-old had one gunshot wound to his head, Yonkers police said after his body was discovered.

On Thursday Morales, 32, was arraigned in Westchester County Court after a grand jury recently indicted him.

Conkling had been working in the area as an employee of a regional carting company when shots were fired in his direction, police said when they began their investigation.

Police arrested Morales the day of the killing. Police said the shooting was not a random act, but they did not know each other. It was not a robbery, police said.

On Thursday, Morales pleaded not guilty to felony charges of second-degree murder, second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, fifth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance for cocaine, third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, and tampering with physical evidence. He also pleaded not guilty to unlawful possession of marijuana, a violation.

Morales is being held without bail at the jail. He is due back in court on July 31.

Morales has served two stints in prison for felony convictions in Westchester, according to the state Department of Corrections and Community Supervision.

He was in prison from February 2014 to October 2017 for attempted second-degree robbery, and he previously served time behind bars for attempted third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, according to DOCCS.

Morales also has two criminal cases pending in Yonkers City Court. In one, he's been charged with fifth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance for cocaine, court records show.

In the other case, he's been charged with third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, a misdemeanor, and infractions for driving without a license and leaving the scene of an accident.
